Grimm's Good

Whether it be in present-day society or in a magical world teeming with characters from all of your favourite characters growing up, everyone struggles with the idea of confirming to a certain norm. It doesn’t mean that something is tradition that it deserves to be a tradition for any longer, and this is something Winter comes to find as she struggles to learn what it means to be the future queen of a patriarchal kingdom.

Or for Prince Charmant, who comes to learn that love is love, and that a heart is never wrong, regardless of tradition and norms. Though these characters from our childhoods share the same appearances and stories, they now finally reflect the real struggles of everyday people, and portray a more diverse, and more complicated world, in which we all live and must learn to live in together.

Fairy tales were instrumental to Gabrielle Iglesias’s childhood. Like many kids her age, she was exposed to countless interpretations of such stories in children’s books, television series, and movies. However, she always felt that there was a lack of modern inclusivity essential for raising future generations of socially aware, understanding, and compassionate young minds. Other than reading and writing, Gabrielle Iglesias has a passion for environmentalism, and is currently studying at Sciences Po, a French university, to become an international environmental attorney.
